TBH alot more of it is to do with driving style and condition of the car than the map itself.

Haven't we already got a couple of threads like this?
I'm averaging 48mpg on the 15 minute/8 mile journey to work and back, during which the car doesn't get fully warm. Stage 1.5 map from pro_steve with an intercooler and twin-mid-box exhaust.

The economy doesn't get drastically worse with remapping. With a stage 1 it generally improves!

best mod is your driving style smooth steady lay off the brakes,
think this thread has said all the best things
blank egr not unplug
service with good quality oils
service the brakes to free them so no binding
check wheel bearings
carry less in the car dump the junk thats not needed
dont fill the fuel tank (weight saving)
dump the spare nd tools

Blanking the egr what does that improve and also could that be my problem of not always having full boost well it feels that way

Fair enough, as above then really, its mostly down to driving style and where you have to drive (ie town rush hour or empty B roads).
I used to do as much MPG raising as I could - keep the car empty, keep the tyres pumped every week, drive extra careful when I wasn't late for stuff etc etc....... Then I couldn't be arsed any more, and my mpg stayed exactly the same over a tank average lol. Doesn't matter how I try to drive or what I do, over a tank its always the same!
In the HDi's, both standard and stage 1, averaged 50mpg every tankfull no matter how full it was or how hard I ragged it - but I still kept to a constant speed and rarely braking as that's how I learnt to drive.... Only thing I can put it down to is driving the same roads/same amount of traffic/similar style for the majority of the time.
